Resistance Retribution fights from PSP to PS5

After something of a lull, PlayStation's library of essential PSP games are on the move to modern platforms again. This month with Bend Studio's mighty Resistance Retribution landing on PS4/PS5 for PlayStation Plus subscribers (or those that own the PSP digital original). 

Update: And the PSP titles keep rolling on at a regular cadence with classic furfest Daxter from Ready at Dawn joining the PSP's PS+ roster in June. One of the best-rated platform adventures, now with plenty of easy trophies, Daxter (his solo adventure, pre-Jak) is still a great romp through the sewers and factories of Haven City with many bugs to splat and light platforming to enjoy. 

Original piece: If this news sounds familiar, Ridge Racer was mentioned among the first of the tweaked PSP games for the then-newly-upgraded PS+ service almost two years ago. 

Notable for its Infected mode working in tandem with Resistance 2 on the PS3 when you linked them up (something the Vita's Resistance Burning Skies tried a similar trick with Near mode), Retribution was a powerhouse on the PSP, even without dual sticks (but you could play it with a DualShock through the PS3 link). 

Retribution moved the series to Paris where British army chap-hero James "Oh, bollocks!" Grayson takes it to the alien Chimera invaders. Boosted with the power of upscaled visuals, DualSense controls, on-the-fly saves, rewind and it should have trophies, but no listing yet (update: Bend has confirmed trophies including a Platinum). Resistance Retribution will pop up on PS+ next week (20th February), or you can buy it on the Vita store now for around $/£/€7. 

Unlikely that the multiplayer modes (which officially went offline back in 2015) will make it through the edit, but we'll see.
